"respectable" obviously depends on who you ask. But I'd say at 42 most software engineers in Bangalore have a paid off home and would have a net worth over a crore.

So basically a net worth of around 2.5cr. Makes sense

The people who voted 10CR+, voted just to skew the poll.

It's his life time savings. And he is not even worried. No house either but he wants to buy a creta!

At age 40 , you should have 3X of savings of your current CTC.

At 42 you should have a fully paid home, car and no other personal/credit card loan. That will be your real asset. Now real network without inheritance should be ideally 3-4cr.. So that you can ideally retire in the next 3 years

Agree. At 42 if you have a paid off home and no outstanding loan then you are in a good shape.from now onwards you can build corpus for retirement.

Why are relatives sharing net worth with you ? Even if shared, why are you concerned?

Liquid or combine (Liquid + investment)

Is this liquid savings or total net worth? For a 40+ IT professional with family, fully paid house + 1cr liquid savings might be a comfortable net worth I think.
